Bobby wanted to earn extra money, so his parents helped him get a job delivering papers. He had to wake up every morning at 5 a.

m. to fold the newspapers. He would then pack them in the sack on his back and ride around the neighborhood, throw the paper on the driveways. A few times, his toss was off and the paper landed on the wet grass. He know he should probably return to the house and place the paper on the driveway, but his arm usually was accurate. He figured he could always pretend he did not notice – especially if no one complained. Bobby really did not like the job, but he forced himself to do it every morning. About three months into the job, he decided it was not worth the extra money. He told his boss that he wanted to quit, but offered to complete the last week of the month because he knew he would have to find a new delivery person.

I would say my rating of the boy was because technically he did wake up and go to work every day but he did not put as much effort as he can. He also did not finish the job and presume to quit as soon as possible.

choli [55]

Answer:

3. The excerpt is an example of situational irony, as Jim has sold the watch for which Della bought a chain.

Explanation:

Irony is the use of language in such a way that the intended meaning of the words is expressed through the use of another opposite expression or words. This rhetorical device presents a situation as something but what the reality is, is a much different thing.

In the given excerpt from O Henry's short story <em>The Gift of the Magi</em>, the scene is that of situational irony. <u>Situational irony occurs when the expected outcome is not what happened but rather the opposite happens. </u>Likewise, the scene is a situational irony for both the characters of Jim and Della wanted to please each other with their gifts. But both ended up selling the very thing that the other person has bought the gift for. <u>Della sold her hair to buy a watch chain for Jim while Jim sold his watch to buy an ornamental comb for Della's hair. </u>

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Affix examples?
timofeeve [1]
An example of an affix is any prefix or suffix since an affix is an addition to a word.

An example of a prefix is Anti, Pro, Tele, Un, Ultra, and so on and so forth.

An example of an allusion is, "I couldn't believe her nose wasn't growing as large as Pinocchio's." This is an allusion because it references another character.

An example of a suffix is er, ful, dom, and so on and so forth.

An example of an analogy is like is to love as dislike is to hate.

Hope this helps!

Emotional setting that is surrounding the readers is important because in that way it can direct them into the right path of the story. <u>The speaker or the author is giving us the mood of the story by description of the situation or the character. </u>
